You tried us with fire
In the Polish countryside in the 1950s, teenage Jadzia lives with a deeply religious mother. Both still live in the shadow of the tragedy of years ago: Father Jadzi died in the fire, and the girl was forever marked by fire. Her mother cannot cope with grief and guilt.

Jadzia grows up in a house full of prohibitions and religious rules. She sees no escape route for herself; she is relieved only by drawing with coal at night. In this way, she tries to tame the trauma, accept her body and feel that something else depends on her. However, the mother sees sin and disobedience in this.


Veil
In a religious community that arranges fictitious exorcisms, things get out of hand when the pastor's daughter is really possessed by a mysterious being. Her brother is faced with a terrifying choice: blindly trust the faith or break free, the price of which can be anything.
